...nearly there!
Added 2022-06-03 19:49:27 +0000 UTCJust a small progress update to let you know where I'm at.
Firstly, I have several people on my back about the crazy crunch I keep subjecting myself to. Those people would be pleased to know I'm pacing myself and making sure I get plenty of rest when it's needed. Like now! I'm about to hit the hay and I plan to come back and finish off what's left tomorrow. I'd hoped to do it today, but I know I'm past best and nothing but a good nights sleep is going to fix that. So for the sake of quality, my health and my sanity, it is time for rest!
Now then, here's where I'm at. I pushed 19x3 to the team earlier and while not everybody has reviewed it yet, so far reception has been positive! "But wait!", you say, "I thought we were only getting one chapter in this release?" You are! Or, better said, you were! It's just that 19x3 expanded and improved so much in my final passes that it made sense to split it in two with the latter half now being 19x4 instead. And to think, originally this was all meant to be a part of 19x2!
Of course, the main reason one chapter is now three has a lot to do with several scenes planned for later in the day being moved forward to improve pacing. In one case, it was convenient to have it happen in a specific point. In the other, it was out of necessity due to decisions we've made about that plot points ending. All of these sequences have expanded considerably as well. resulting in far better, more meaningful and more entertaining content. And all of it is stuff that needed to happen anyway, so it's great to not only get them out of the way, but to achieve such a high standard with them as well. I'm thrilled with how they've turned out!
So, 19x3 being the first half of the planned content is pretty much final. 19x4 needs a little more TLC, but no more than what 19x3 got from me today. This is to say one more day of hard work should do it! And good news! It's longer than last months build! Yes, the build I had a week to prepare is longer than the build before it... whoops! But hey, if that isn't the most Xevvy thing imaginable, what is?
And yes, I still plan to make another content drop a little later in the month. We've got more plot threads to tie up, and the sooner that's done, the sooner we can have fun things... like one last sex scene! That, and there'll be a surprise sequence coming in the next few months sometime too, but we can't even begin with that until a certain plot thread is resolved, so... stay tuned...
Anyway, sorry about the wait, but I think it'll be worth it!

Agreed, you've done such a good job, but now you need to rest.
